Thought the Pandemic would have been the strangest thing for many years - but just watched a Challenge Cup rugby match and there are players wearing tights!!

FFS has the world gone totally mad😲

nb - not a Scottish team involved I am pleased to say.

I am guessing not a pair of Pretty Polly's, but some athletic type for heat and circulation to help muscles.

I am sure they are, but rugby players really. We moan about football players feigning injury and diving, but rugby players are meant to be big tough guys.

Believe me, Italian ‘men’ wear tights.

 

That stop above the ankle.  

 

With trainers.

Loads of rugby players wear 'tights' for pitches that are artificial / semi-artificial. It's basically to avoid the cuts and scrapes, rather than to avoid 'feeling cold'. Nothing wrong with it.

Worn them many a time, back in my running days in the 70's (everybody did, well most everybody back then), helped to keep your legs warm when training in the winter, especially on freezing cold winterly nights.  You'd be surprised just how quickly your legs/muscles get cold in the winter, and cold muscles is just asking for trouble.

 

Wintergreen oil rubbed into your legs (local chemist used to mix up his own recipe) & tights used to help keep your legs warm and thus helped protect your leg muscles from injuries.

When I left Scottish Widows in the early Nineteen ninties, to take a post in Liverpool, my leaving gift was a perm kit, California blonde dye, and a shellsuit so i would feel at home among the Liverpool natives.  I had a mullet at the time.

 

Needless to say, I got a number one at the barbers the very next day to remove it all
